Really Cool Cardigan/Poncho/Pullover Type Thing!

I hate to say that Sweater Babe has done it again, but Dudes! Katherine has totally rocked her newest design!

Check out this awesome cape with cable and lace details.

This is what Katherine has to say about her latest creation: “Wrap yourself in cozy warmth and look ultra chic to boot!
This fabulous cape features bold cabled, shaped hip pockets and slit armholes. The same cable design embellishes the back. Wide lace panels run down each side. Shaping creates the easy fit and pretty drape.
This is the perfect piece to throw on top of your beautiful kimono-sleeved tops or your everyday t-shirt and jeans! Plus, it’s knit from the top-down, so you can adjust the length if need be.
6-button closure, including an extra button on the collar to keep the chill off of your neck.”

Whatever anyone wants to say about it, I am totally in love. And you guessed it, Yup, it’s going in the queue.

Why should the fireplace get all the fun? Instead of knitting stockings this year, why not whip up a pair of Christmas themed socks? These Christmas sock knitting patterns are lots of fun to make and you can wear them to holiday gatherings for years to come.

For our friends in the southern part of the world, there are the Christmas in July socks from the Kiwi Lodge – Kylie (Ravelry link). These shorty socks are covered in Christmas trees and have bright pink heels and toes for a tropical feel. There’s also an option to make a longer sock if you celebrate somewhere it’s colder.

Twin Stitches Designs (Ravelry) has a fun pattern with mix and match colorwork motifs you can use to build your own cozy Christmas socks. From the sample socks I see Christmas puddings, trucks hauling trees, Santa belts, ornaments and a couple of different borders. There may be more patterns included but the listing doesn’t say. Make a pair that matches or use different motifs on each foot for extra holiday cheer.

If you want to stick to Christmas puddings on your holiday socks, check out this cute pattern from Stone Knits. These lovely socks feature a band of puddings around the leg and a bit of holly by the toes.

These vintage holiday light socks from Grey Owl Knits by Sarah are classic looking and lots of fun at the same time. I love this color combination but of course you can make your lights and stripes whatever colors you like or have on hand. They’re worked using stranded knitting.

And if you’d like even more of a mix of patterns for your socks, try Barbara Ceglédi’s Christmas Chaos socks, a free pattern on Ravelry. The pattern includes 25 little motifs you can choose from, ranging from snowflakes and Christmas trees to elf hats, reindeer and hearts.
